On June 1896, Ceely Rose  poisoned her family with arsenic because they wouldn't let her see or speak the name of their neighbor, Guy Berry. Her father, David, died within a week of being poisoned. Walter, her brother, died within two weeks  and Rebecca, her mother, lived for a month before getting a second dose and then dying. Listen to hear the whole story.
